Barry, thanks for your entry. I didn't even know Great Uncle Walter had played cards!
My favorite memory is Uncle Walter sruggling with a stubborn mule... but those were all good times. Going to market, making cup cheese, sitting in the summer house.
God Bless Walter, and I'm glad he's at peace with my grandmother and greatgrandmother.

May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow.I remember playing Hasenpfeffer with Mr. Gundy at the Brecknock Fire Co. about 35 years ago when I was a teenager. My mother (Grace Eager) and my aunt (Ruby Fryberger)also played and we had a great time each week.
